INJURY TO THE ATLANTA.
Results of the Firing OF Her Unusually
Heavy Gums,


The firing of the heavy guns on the Atlanta
it is learned, did some minor damage to the
ship in addition to the loosening of the clips
and clip circles and splintering of the deck
Several of the doors were sprung from their
fastenings, and the torpedo search glass was
damaged, but naval officers say that this was
not to be unexpected, and was probably due
to the conclusion of firing such unusually
powerful guns, and to the fact that the doors
were not secured tightly, and left open for
the air to rush through, Nothing has oc-
Cured, they say, but can be very easily rem
edied, and the United States is simply going
through the experience Of other nations with
the exception that in other countries, espe-
cially in continental Europe, nothing is
said of these mishaps, and they
are kept secret as possible
The trials already. had proved that the
Atlanta is a good vessel, and that there is
nothing the matter with the guns but that
the conditions under which the firing took
place are different from those at the proving
grounds, and that some alterations must be
made to meet the changed conditions.
Secretary Whitney, in speaking of the
failure of the guns of the Atlanta, said she
was meant for fighting ship and must be
further tested He appointed board to
subject her and her guns to q severe test in
all sorts of wind and weather to determine
whether she is thoroughly fitted for naval
warfare
